Chris writes: "In the past, I may have made mention of my adoration for Ikaruga. I have spent many frustrated hours immersed in the bullet hell of Ikaruga, and I don’t regret a single second of it. Now, for the first time in my life, I’ve had the chance to play the game that made Ikaruga possible: Radiant Silvergun. Developed by Treasure, and ported as an XBLA exclusive, Radiant Silvergun is just as frustrating as its offspring, Ikaruga. To be perfectly, honest…I wouldn’t have it any other way."
"The Tokyo-based (Japan) video games developers Live Wire and TREASURE Co., today announced with great happiness and excitement that the cult classic arcade shoot-em-up "Radiant Silvergun" (the game just celebrated its 25th anniversary), is now available for PC via Steam." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
“It's that time of year again; our Game of the Year Awards have begun and to kick things off, here are the best retro titles from 2022.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
“Radiant Silvergun remains one of my favourite shoot 'em ups of all time with its mind-blowing array of weaponry, steep challenge, and clever mechanics. It's been a long time since it released, though, so I was hoping there would be some new content included here.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
